What is the age of consent in Cambodia?

If you have something so weird, strange or off-topic to post and think it doesn't belong in any other forum; you're probably right. Please put all your gormless, half-baked, inane, glaikit ideas in here. This might also be a place where we throw threads that appear elsewhere that don't belong ANYWHERE end up, instead of having to flush them. FORUM RULES STILL APPLY.

What is the age of consent in Cambodia?

Post by SoonerorLater »

Not is not my real question....what happens if you bar fine a girl that claims to be 19 but turns out to be 16 and the Cambodia police somehow learn and show up at your room?

Then I suggest you're going to find out sooner rather than later. "But she said she was 19" is not a defence, even in this country. Pointing at the bar who fined her out won't help you, it will only land them in the poo, too.

Edit - to answer your question, the age of consent in Cambodia is 16 UNLESS the girl is a sex worker, and then it's 18.

"Edit - to answer your question, the age of consent in Cambodia is 16 UNLESS the girl is a sex worker, and then it's 18."

So, two years of apprenticeship giving it away, then turn pro. (theoretically anyway).

In strict theory - and only theory - the letter of the law is that one can have limitless fun with persons of both genders who are fifteen,
sixteen and seventeen SO LONG AS NO FINANCIAL INDUCEMENT changes hands.

What is a FINANCIAL INDUCEMENT? A steak dinner, a pair of sandals, a Hello Kitty watch, a purse, a T-shirt ... ?

In short, the piggies here can nail you and haul you into court (and into the newspapers*) or you
can probably cut an under-the-table deal for several hundred dollars IF - and only IF - you can
cut a deal early in the proceedings.

You are better-advised to stick to the over-twenties.

There have been plenty of cases of local youths ending up in jail for having sex with their 17 year old girlfriend.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
